    Who would have ever thought it.

    Can we now try to engage our brains and speak rationally about what is going on. We're heading for receivership. Stop shouting and think about what is happening.

    Think everyone came out saying the same but at least we have a top 3/4 squad, Mladen is doing a good job and XG Watters is red hot

    I think thats what everyone is afraid of.

    We've been there before for less than this

    And all we can see is a club hemorrhage money and it feels worse on the pitch than then.

    We are all fearful of where we may eventually bottom out.

    And I think we aren't bottoming out yet.

    Clarke would have won us a couple of this bunch of four against some of the poorest sides in the league.

    He wouldn't have cost the club money by freezing out one of our best assets, thus showing buying clubs they can get him cheaper.

    Well, yes, absolutely. And that's just a minor point.

    I mean, come on, who isn't seeing this?

    We are only heading one way when our owner is refusing to accept what ten thousand people are telling him every week.

    Top 3 squad. He's either taking the piss or utterly negligent. Either way it ends in disaster

    I think he’s have picked largely the same teams, asked them to play in broadly the same way, and likely had much the same results.

    The team is the team and the style is dictated from above.

    I think a pertinent question to ask Neerav, who, judging by his interviews, is dictating the style of play we have to adopt, is: "When did you first watch a game of professional football in a stadium?"

    I don't think I've seen the stands as empty as this since well, I can't, for a league game at least

    No journalist has bothered asking it, but I'd like to know.

    it's never just been one thing, it's a multitude of things, but poor coaching is one of them, just look at the shape of the team it's embarrasing, doesn't cost anything to be organised

    Think it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better unfortunately

    We are in a very very bad place right now.

    The accounts are deeply concerning
    The recruitment abysmal
    The product appalling

    Worst of all the vision behind it all is what I can only describe as misguided.

    A top 3 team based on the data? Terrifying that this is the thought process from the man at the top tbh as it indicates things will get a lot worse before we can get better.

    We are heading for league 2 If we don’t have a good summer recruitment wise. There is absolutely no evidence to show that we have improved in that area!

    It's a great question that should be asked
